Best Movie Star

Chapter 570: scheming man

In the spacious office, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are sitting next to each other, their faces are quite serious, they are very aware of their own situation, they are deeply involved in cheating and mistress scandals and cannot extricate themselves from the media and the public. Contempt, hiding in Africa for more than a year to give birth to children, no outstanding works have come out, every time the American sweetheart Jennifer Aniston appears, it can lead to widespread ridicule by the media.

If they want to truly return to Hollywood, it cannot be solved simply by walking the Oscar red carpet. They need whitewashing, wide-spread works, and explosive box office numbers.

Especially the last point, as long as it can prove that the box office appeal is still there, the Hollywood studios don't care about any scandals or the like.

As long as you have box office appeal, even if the object of derailment is a pig, the film company will find you to make a movie.

"Julie, Pete."

It was a middle-aged white man with glasses who was also their newly hired manager, Collina. "What about your situation? It's hard to say, easy to say."

He elaborated, "Just like what Pitt said before, Hollywood and the audience are forgetful. As long as you can have an excellent work, the audience will selectively forget a lot of things. But the audience and the media are the most vengeful, if The work is terrible, and their sarcasm leaves people nowhere."

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt nodded at the same time, as they had learned.

"In recent years, the typical example of this is Matthew Horner." Manager Collina added, "Matthew Horner has a lot of black spots and black materials, but in the films he starred in, the box office hits the box office continuously. Under these circumstances, few people care about the black spot, and many even regard him playing with women as a target to follow."

Hearing the name mentioned, Angelina Jolie's heart is very complicated. The little person who used to be obedient in front of her, but climbed to the top of her head. Only she can understand the complicated feeling.

Even now, she still remembers the appearance of Matthew Horner when he was carefully courting her in front of her. Who would have thought that he would become so popular?

These can only prove one thing, Matthew Horner is a scheming man!

Collina looked at Angelina Jolie at this time, "I have sent your plan to your mailbox." He paused, then said, "Julie, your next focus is to focus on Women's rights, children and charity, you don't adopt a lot of orphans, think of ways to do more with them, with them, you can wash it... It's not difficult for you to return to your previous position."

"I'll take a closer look," Angelina Jolie said.

"Pete, you are different from Julie." Collina's eyes fell on Brad Pitt, "You were firmly in the front line before, and you also had a strong appeal. The root of your fame lies in the movie itself, and your re-emergence It's all about the movies at all."

Brad Pitt wasn't stupid either, and said, "I need a great work."

However, Collina reminded, "We must do everything possible to avoid failure while ensuring success."

"So, Matthew Horner's choice is also our best choice." Brad - Pitt said.

"I agree with you," Collina elaborated, "Right now, Matthew Horner is in talks with Warner Bros. and Akiva Goldsman about a project called a production budget of a conservative $150 million. Dollar."

Angelina Jolie asked, "Is there a chance?"

Collina replied, "Yes! From what I understand, Matthew Horner is asking for $35 million..."

"How much?" Brad Pitt asked in surprise.

"$35 million!" Collina repeated the number.

Brad Pitt heard it clearly this time, and said subconsciously, "Is he worth the price!"

"Frankly, Pete," Collina said directly. "I think he's worth it!"

He could see that Brad Pitt was still immersed in the feeling of being a popular movie star in the past and did not wake up, so he said, "Every dollar paid by investors for him has been exchanged for several times the return, so he value!"

Brad Pitt is not a person with closed information, and is speechless for a moment.

Collina continued, "Of course, in their own interest, no one is willing to pay such a high salary, and the negotiations between Warner Bros. and Matthew Horner's agent have not yet reached an agreement, which provides us with operating possible."

He looked at Brad Pitt, "I had contact with an associate producer on the crew, you only need half of Matthew Horner's salary, and your plan B can participate in the investment..."

Brad Pitt suddenly interjected, "Plan B cannot be invested for the time being." He simply explained, "Aniston is withdrawing capital, and Plan B will not be able to resume normal operations until she completely withdraws."

More than a year ago, Jennifer Aniston wanted to withdraw the capital. He has been hiding in Africa, but it is not the way to delay it for a long time. It happened to kick Jennifer Aniston away, and he became the absolute majority shareholder of Plan B.

"I want to ask." Angelina Jolie suddenly interjected, "Is it possible to get the role from Matthew Horner?"

In fact, when she heard Brad Pitt talk about it in the car, she was not very optimistic.

Collina said cautiously, "If we go for it, there is still a little chance. If we don't go for it, there is no chance at all."

Brad Pete nodded, "This is the first choice. If we fail, we can turn to other roles."

If there was any other way to get a big-budget male lead, he wouldn't use it either.

Last year, Paramount Pictures politely declined the male lead he wanted to win. Later, he was going to let Plan B invest in a project called, but it was aborted because of Aniston's withdrawal. At the beginning of this year, he also planned two other first-line production male leads. One counterparty thinks that it is too risky to use him, the other is that he thinks it is too risky...

Angelina Jolie didn't talk anymore, she didn't plan to be tied to Brad Pitt career-wise, and Collina had a point.

For some reason, she suddenly thought of Matthew Horner again.

In the crew that year, she and Matthew Horner were bullied by the heroine and producer Winona Ryder, and even she had to avoid Winona Ryder's edge, Matthew Horner A worthless extra, under the strong pressure of Winona Ryder, has no chance of staying on the crew at all.

However, in the case of zero chance, the scheming man staged a good comeback, and he couldn't help but successfully turn Winona Ryder back, stay in the crew, and let the original role go further and get a line ...

Brad Pitt is now 10,000 times stronger than Matthew Horner back then. Should Matthew Horner not pay attention, there should be a chance, right?

It's also a chance for her to see what Brad Pitt can do.

She hooked up with Brad Pitt, never because he was good looking. If this is the case, at the beginning, with her fame and financial resources, it was not difficult to find a few tender male models from the modeling circle to play with, and it was not that she had never done such a thing in the past.

Those male models have good physique, good looks, and good skills. As long as they give money, they can drop everything to cater to...

While Angelina Jolie was distracted, Collina and Brad Pitt had already agreed on some implementation details.

"I have no business dealings with Akiva Goldsman in the past." Collina said slowly, "However, the associate producer has promised to help me meet with Akiva Goldsman."

He looked at Brad Pitt, "Pete, you come with me this afternoon to show your sincerity."

Brad Pitt nodded slightly, "Yes."

Collina added, "You have always had a good relationship with Warner Bros., and you have worked together before. This weekend, Warner Bros. will hold a celebration party for you. I got an invitation for you. You can go there when you have time."

"I'll go." Brad Pitt is not new and knows the importance of connections.

Angelina Jolie said at this point, "I don't have time for the weekend."

Brad Pitt turned to look at her. "Can't you put it off? I need a female companion."

"It can't be postponed." Angelina Jolie has always been direct, "It's not that you don't know, I made an appointment with someone ten days ago to go to Cambodia, which is very important to me!"

Brad Pitt is a little dissatisfied~www.readwn.com~ Can't you please accommodate me first? "

"Pete!" Angelina Jolie suddenly raised her voice, "It's not just you who have a career, I also have a career!"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Collina quickly said, "Pete, it's more flexible for you to go alone."

Brad Pitt turned around and stopped talking, obviously not happy.

Angelina Jolie is quite independent, turning a blind eye to Brad Pitt's appearance, and said to Collina, "You coordinate the weekend itinerary for me, book a few more first-class tickets, and I will take the children. go together."

Hearing this, Brad Pitt was instantly furious, and he was forced to press down in front of Collina. For some reason, he suddenly felt that Angelina Jolie was much worse than the gentle and peaceful Jennifer Aniston. .

But he never lost his temper. It is more important to get rid of the slump in his career now. When Jennifer Aniston is completely out of Plan B, he will raise funds to find suitable projects.

As a first-line red star, it is not difficult to become popular again! Brad Pitt has always had this idea.

Warners Studios, Akiva Goldsman had lunch, went to the post-production room to see post-production hosted by Guillermo del Toro, went to the production crew in preparation, and walked out of the studio door , crossed the street at the door, and pushed open the glass door of a cafe.

The deputy had made an appointment for him before, and a manager wanted to meet him.

Today’s world is changing very fast, and Akiva Goldsman has also noticed that the industry of managers is rising rapidly. Although the manager who asked him has only met him and is not familiar with it, it is because of the deputies’ many years of meticulous service. I decided to come over and meet again.

Walking down the long passage to the end, he saw the guy in the suit and tie, and Brad Pitt next to him!
